Is Strategy (STRK) stock Halal?
Verdict for Strategy (STRK): not Shariah compliant (FAIL). Screened October 2026 under AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21. Business activity: pass. Non-permissible income: fail. Interest-bearing investments: pass. Interest-bearing debt: pass. Preference shares: fail. Dividend purification factor: not applicable. Next review: November 2026.
This makes it an attractive option for investors seeking fixed income with potential capital appreciation. For Muslim investors, though, the most pressing question is simpler: is Strategy a Halal investment?
Is Strategy Shariah compliant?
No. In the October 2026 screening Strategy (STRK) does not pass AAOIFI screening: it fails the non-permissible income and preference share screens. Technology companies rarely fail AAOIFI screening on what they sell. Software, hardware and digital services are permissible business activities, so for a company like Strategy the Shariah question moves to the balance sheet: how much of its market value sits in interest bearing debt, how much of its cash earns Riba in conventional deposits, and whether incidental income from impermissible sources creeps past 5% of revenue. These are exactly the ratios AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 polices, and they move every month with the share price.
Does Strategy pass the business activity test?
The activity screen is only part of the picture this month: Strategy currently fails the non-permissible income and preference share screens, so the overall verdict is not compliant regardless of the business itself. The watch item for technology names is incidental: cash returns and platform content can carry impermissible elements, which AAOIFI tolerates only below the thresholds.
Is Strategy's income Halal?
No. Strategy's income from impermissible sources currently exceeds AAOIFI's 5% revenue ceiling, which makes the stock non-compliant on this screen regardless of the others. The screen is reassessed monthly, so the status can change when new financial statements arrive.
Does Strategy meet AAOIFI's debt and investment ratio requirements?
Yes. Both caps hold this month: interest bearing investments and interest bearing debt each stay below 30% of market capitalisation. Because the caps move with the share price, our Shariah Supervisory Board has STRK re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict. Strategy also fails the preference share screen this month.
Why do other halal screeners show a different verdict for Strategy?
Screeners can disagree without either being wrong. AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21, which Tabadulat applies, measures interest bearing debt and investments against market capitalisation with a 30% ceiling. MSCI and FTSE measure them against total assets with a 33% ceiling, and S&P and Dow Jones Islamic use a multi year average of market capitalisation. Data dates differ too, because each provider reads filings and prices on its own schedule. The same company can therefore pass one standard and fail another in the same month. Tabadulat publishes one answer, the AAOIFI result as of October 2026, and re-screens it every month.
